¿Qué quieres comer en España?

¿Quieres comer callos a la madrileña?

Callos a la Madrileña Callos, another of Madrid’s winter staples, is a stew-like dish traditionally served in clay dishes featuring strips of beef tripe (stomach), chunks of chorizo (paprika-spiced sausage) and slices of morcilla (blood sausage). The smokey, savory stew has been a popular cold-weather dish in Spain’s bars and taverns for hundreds of years. The first recipes for callos date back to the 16th century! The hearty stew is usually tinted red from the paprika and can be found in most bars and restaurants throughout the capital city during the winter months.

¿Piensas probar bocadillo de calamares?

Bocadillo de Calamares No trip to Madrid is complete without tasting the city’s most famous sandwich, the bocadillo de calamares, or fried squid sandwich. Madrid’s central Plaza Mayor is the mecca for this simple, yet scrumptious sandwich.  The most basic (and most traditional) bocadillo de calamares consists of crusty fresh bread loaded with deep-fried, flour-coated rings of squid. Some Spaniards top the two-ingredient creation with tomato and paprika puree or homemade garlic mayonnaise and it is almost always washed down with a caña of beer and a side of olives. Some of Madrid’s most famous calamari sandwich bars are situated near the grand Plaza Mayor, along its many side streets.

¿Quieres pedir cocido madrileño?

Cocido Madrileño As the weather gets cold, the smell of this simmering pork stew begins to waft through the streets of Madrid. Winter here is cocido time. Madrid’s take on the traditional Spanish stew usually consists of a dark flavorful broth specked with vegetables, chickpeas, chorizo sausage and pork. The stew is simmered for upwards of four hours, creating a blend of heavenly robust flavors that make for the ideal cure to Madrid’s wintery weather.

¿Puedes probar oreja a la plancha en un restaurante español?

Oreja a la Plancha

¿Prefieres pedir los churros con chocolate?

Churros con Chocolate What could be more deliciously satisfying after a stellar night of Madrid-style fiesta than a deep-fried stick of crispy dough dipped in thick, melted chocolate? That’s right, nothing. Churros are a staple of Madrid’s after-hours nightlife and a definite must-have for Madrid’s young people during the wee hours. For non-nocturnal Madrileños churros with cup of steaming hot, thick chocolate are a common afternoon snack and are even occasionally eaten for breakfast! The most famous (and arguably most delicious) place to get your hands on a plate-full of churros — or their thicker, richer cousin porras — is San Gines, where Madrileños have been devouring the sweet fried treat for more than 100 years.

¿Piensas comer la tortilla española?

Tortilla Española Tortilla, or Spanish omelet,A staple of Spanish cuisine. And in Madrid, the huge diversity of this simple dish is on prominent display. Here in the capital, you can find every variety of tortilla de patatas. Some are runny piles of egg and potato that have to be scooped up with bread. Others are served as firm slices featuring everything from caramelized onions to mushrooms to sausage to peppers. Most bars in Madrid will serve a small square of tortilla with a toothpick as a tapa, but to fully enjoy this dish a pincho (slightly larger slice) of tortilla is a must!

¿Prefieres una paella de marisco o una paella valenciana?

Paella Paella is one of the most popular dishes served in restaurants all over Spain. Tourists love to eat paella, and this dish usually is made with short grain rice (usually grown in the Province of Valencia) and is colored yellow and cooked with saffron, a spice that comes from Castilla la Mancha. There is a wide variety of paella and many restaurants have their own recipes and variations. Many paellas include red and green peppers and tomatoes. 1. Paella Valenciana – The original paella was born in Valencia. Besides rice, this includes chicken and pork. Many natives include rabbit, but many restaurants do not include it because they know that many tourists are not familiar with rabbit. 2. Paella de Marisco – This is a seafood paella that does not contain meat. It usually contains prawns, mussels, calamares, clams, and other seafood. 3. Paella Mixta – This paella is a mixture of the paella Valenciana and the paella de marisco. It contains both meat and seafood. Sometimes this paella is called Paella Andaluz.
